"Considering my current situation, the remaining ti of less than a month...is not enough!"
The spiritual liquid spoke slowly.
Chen Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly.
Even though they had only been together for about two months, he had already noticed that the spiritual liquid was quite cunning, or in other words, too scheming.
"Just tell what you want to do?"
"I need the crystal stones within the Stone Race. Consuming them will speed up my recovery!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan found it a bit strange, "Then why don’t you handle it yourself?"
The spiritual liquid had a natural attraction towards the Stone Race; it should not be difficult to seize the crystal stones from them when they are unguarded.
But why did it need to tell him this?
"I can’t make a move against the Stone Race!"
"Why?"
"The rules dictate it; I can nurture the Stone Race but cannot take action. Otherwise, I would be directly obliterated by the Heavenly Dao!"
"Is that so?"
Chen Xuan looked at it suspiciously.
What exactly is this Heavenly Dao? It makes rules like this for it?
"This is a minor issue."
To Chen Xuan, the people of the Stone Race were like children in his eyes, easily defeated with a single punch.
"Then just wait here!"
...
In the grand hall, the dozing Stonemason was suddenly awakened by a chaotic sound of footsteps.
He slowly opened his eyes.
Three people, looking panic-stricken, rushed in.
"How dare you!"
The Stonemason shouted angrily, as this was the location of the Stone Race Sacred Land, and they had barged in so brazenly.
"Craftsman King, sothing major has happened."
The leading middle-aged man didn’t bother with formalities and shouted loudly at the Stonemason.
"What major thing?"
"Dead, more than half have died. More than half of the clansn in the Sacred Land have died!"
The man’s voice trembled, his eyes filled with fear.
All royal family mbers of the Stone Race would leave soul plaques, and they were the ones responsible for overseeing them.
Suddenly today, one soul plaque after another shattered.
In just a mont, a hundred plaques shattered, all belonging to the younger generation that entered the Sacred Land. He imdiately knew sothing major had happened inside the Sacred Land.
This was why he had disregarded the rules and directly barged into the grand hall.
"What!"
The Stonemason stood up abruptly, "Lin’Er, has her soul plaque shattered?"
"Shi Lin’s is fine!"
Hearing this answer, the Stonemason felt sowhat relieved.
But losing hundreds of the royal family was a significant loss for the Stone Race.
"Stay here and wait!"
He imdiately dashed out of the grand hall, heading to the Third Ancestor.
A mont later.
The Third Ancestor arrived with a grim expression, followed closely by the Stonemason, and even Li Mu was there.
"Hundreds of soul plaques shattered?"
When he heard this news, he couldn’t believe it; although deaths and injuries occasionally occurred in the Sacred Land, it was at most a handful; this ti, it was in the hundreds.
What exactly happened inside the Sacred Land?
"Boom!"
The man imdiately kneeled down on both knees, replying sorrowfully, "Yes, ancestor, hundreds!"
Upon hearing this once more, the mid-eighth layer of Dao Realm power exploded, his face dark and terrifying, causing the man to tremble all over.
"Should we open the Sacred Land in advance, Third Ancestor?"
The Stonemason asked in a deep voice.
Although Shi Lin was unhard, he needed to know what was happening inside the Sacred Land now, so he wanted to open it and bring Shi Lin out.
"Calm down!"
The Third Ancestor turned and glared at him.
Fool!
Forcing the Sacred Land open would cause it damage.
The Sacred Land was the foundation of the Stone Race. No matter what happened, it couldn’t be hard.
Moreover, forcibly opening the Sacred Land wasn’t decided by him alone.
Li Mu, however, had a flash of doubt in his eyes. Did that kid make a move inside?
"What audacity!"
Even he found himself admiring Chen Xuan.
It’s not unreasonable for a mber of the Human Race to kill a mber of the Stone Race, but to do so in the Sacred Land? Wasn’t he afraid of being exposed?
"I wonder if that kid has found the spiritual liquid?"
He didn’t care about the killings; what he cared about was the spiritual liquid. If Chen Xuan succeeded in acquiring the spiritual liquid, then years of planning would co to fruition.
"What if sothing happens to Lin’Er? She is the one in our tribe with the most potential to reach the eighth layer!"
Don’t panic?
How could he not be panicking!
That was his own daughter, and her crystal stone was pure. Even the Great Ancestor had stated that barring any unforeseen events, she could beco an ancestral figure in the Stone Race.
"Bring all the soul plaques of those who entered the Sacred Land here!"
"Yes, Third Ancestor!"
The man and the other two imdiately went to collect the soul plaques.
"Wait!"
The Third Ancestor said coldly, his eyes fixed on the giant stone hovering in mid-air.
....
"Ah...."
The fainted Shi Lin finally awoke, and the first sight upon opening her eyes was Chen Xuan devouring crystal stone after crystal stone.
Those were the most crucial crystal stones within the Stone Race.
This sight imdiately startled her, prompting a scream of mournful rage.
"Why...why are you doing this, you are also from the Stone Race!"
Shi Lin forced herself to endure the intense pain, propping herself up and shouting at Chen Xuan.
How dare he!
A re mber of a lesser branch, slaughtering the royal family mbers, was he not afraid of death?
"Shut up!"
Chen Xuan couldn’t be bothered to deal with her. Then he swallowed a crystal stone, sending it to the Dantian.
"Delicious, delicious!"
Within the Dantian, the spiritual liquid absorbed these crystal stones joyfully, gradually recovering its weakened aura.
Once all the crystal stones were absorbed, it had recovered about sixty percent of its previous state.
"What about her?"
The spiritual liquid asked.
It clearly had its eyes on Shi Lin’s crystal stone.
"Don’t touch her!"
Chen Xuan, of course, knew what it was thinking, but during the process of killing the other mbers of the Stone Race, he accidentally discovered that every royal family mber has a soul plaque. If the spiritual liquid devoured Shi Lin’s, her identity would no longer be usable.
